Which of the following equations has the correct products and is balanced correctly for a reaction between na3po4 and koh? a) na3po4 + 3koh → 3naoh + k3po4, because k retains the same charge throughout the reaction b) na3po4 + koh → na3oh + kpo4, because k increases in charge from 1+ to 3+ when it is replaced c) na3po4 + koh → 3naoh + k3po4, because k retains the same charge throughout the reaction d) na3po4 + koh → na3oh + k3po4, because k increases in charge from 1+ to 3+ when it is replaced

The answer is: A) Na3PO4 + 3KOH → 3NaOH + K3PO4, because K retains the same charge throughout the reaction.

This chemical reaction is double displacement reaction - cations (K⁺ and Na⁺) and anions (PO₄³⁻⁻ and OH⁻) of the two reactants switch places and form two new compounds.  

Na₃PO₄ is sodium phosphate.  

KOH is potassium hydroxide.  

NaOH is sodium hydroxide.  

K₃PO₄ is potassium phosphate.  

According to the mass conservation law, there are same number of atoms on both side of balanced chemical reaction.

A - Na3PO4 + 3KOH → 3NaOH + K3PO4, because K retains the same charge throughout the reaction
